Newly signed Reggie Bullock underwent successful surgery for a cervical disk herniation Wednesday, the New York Knicks announced.
The team said it would provide an update on his rehab and progress around the start of training camp.
On Tuesday, Bullock signed a two-year, $8.2 million deal with the Knicks. The sides reworked the deal after his medical issue forced the team to back out of its original two-year, $21 million agreement.
The 28-year-old Bullock averaged 11.3 points in 63 games for the Detroit Pistons and Los Angeles Lakers last season. He was acquired by the Lakers ahead of the trade deadline in February in exchange for guard Sviatoslav Mykhailiuk and a second-round draft pick.
He also has played for the Suns and Clippers since being drafted with the 25th overall pick in 2013.
The surgery was at the Hospital for Special Surgery in New York.
